for
Service in the Inland
Waters of the
Ph ilippiucs.
The Navy Department is pre
paring to organize a 1 mosquito
fleet" for the Philippines. The
condition now prevailing in the
Island of Luzon indicates that
for a long time it will be neces
sary to maintain a strict pairoi
of the coast and inland waters.
The big oean tugs which funn
ed the mosquito fleet" that op
erated around Cuba during the
blockade, and of which the Gov
eminent has a r umber, are now
being looked over with a view
to service in the inland waters
of the Philippines. Some of
them are on the Pacific coast.
The Navy Department has
figured out a coasting voyage
that will take them up the AU
askan coast, coaling at Sitka,
Ounalaska, Cook's Inlet, down
through the Aleution Islands,
to Hakodado, the northern point
of Tapan. Thence they can
make the run across the China
Sea to HongKoug and thence to
the Philipines. It will be about
a two month's voyage and can
be safely made.
Spain had a fl.et of small gun
boats admirably suited for this
work in the Philipines, but has
recently sold thirteen of them
at Honor Kong. It is possible
some of these vessels may be
purchased by the Navy Depart
ment if they are in good condi
tion and can be had for a rea
sonable sum.

MEETS A FEARFUL
DEATH.
HIS LAMP EXPLODED.
His Wife Burned Her
Hands Trying To
Extinguish the
Flames-
A shocking death occurred at
Warrentou, N. C, early last
Saturday morning. Friday night
; about 10 o'clock, after he had
undressed and had slipped on a
dressing gown, Mr. Walter Ays
cock lowered the s winging lamp
and blew it out, when it burst
enveloping his body from neck
to feet in burning oil. No one
else was in the room at the time,
but his wife ran in and envelop
ed him in a blanket and put out
the names, badly burning her
own hands. She burned several
blankets before she coquered the
fire. Mr. Aycock was charred to
a crisp, but survived untd 7
o'clock Saturday morning. He
was about 36 years old, was a
good merchant aud universally
liked. He was an active member
of the Baptist church. His life
was insured for about $8,000.

BROTHER AND SISTER.
Marriage Contracted by Them
in Ignorance Declared
Null and Void.
Vienna, March 18. A Sin
gular domestic tragedy is report-
ed from Nagy Warad, in Hun
gary. Last year two very young
people, named John Szilagyl
and Piroska Varga, married, and
were recently blessed with a
daughter. The Royal Court has
however, been forced to declare
the marriage null and void since
it has been proved that the pair
are really brother and sister.
It seems that the young man
was illegitimate, and, accords
iugly, took his mother's name,
aud when he was subsequently
legitamized by the marriage of
his father and mother it was for
gotten to make any change in
the register of his birth. The
parents died, and the children,
who were left quite young, were
sent into service in two different
places each with a different
name and with documents bears
iug those names. By a fatal co
incidence they met without
knowing each other, fell in love
and married
The child has been provision
ally left with the mother.but the
husband and wife have been
separated, though they declare
they would rather die than part.

Medical Schools in Straights.
All the medical schools in
this State are in great straights
over an inability to procure
dead bodies for dissection. The
last General Assembly repealed
the atanomy law, which enabled
the schools to get bodies from
charitable institutions and from
the peuitentiary, and now bods
ies can only be procured by pur
chase, which is always difficult.
Formerly subjects for dissection
were also obtained from Balti
more and other places, but now
there is a stringent law against
such shipments. Unless some
assistance is given the State
University in this matter it will
be compelled to olose its medi
cal department.
Death
in
The Elec
tric Chair.
Electrocution of Mrs-
Martha Place for
Murder.
Went to Death Quietly. The
First Woman to Be Ex
ecuted Undc1" New
York's New Law.
New York, March 20th.
Mrs. Martha Place was executed
at Sing Sing prison today. She
was the first woman to die in
the electric chair in the State of
New York, and she went to fier
I death quietly, rier death was
! instanta ieous, but two shocks
were given. State Electrician
Davis threw down the lever at
exactly 11 01 a. m. The volt
age of the current .as 1,760, and
it was continued for four sec
onds. It was then gradually
diminished to 200 volts, which
was continued for 56 seconds.
Dr. Irvine, the physician ot the
prison, examined the woman
and then oidered a second shock.
That was the same as the first in
power, and continued for the
same length of time. The sec
ond shock has always been ad
ministered at Sing Sing.
Mrs. Place murdered her step
daughter, Ida M. Place, a mere
girl on February 7, 1898. She
J-first threw acid in the girl's eyes
and then smothered her. This
was early in the moruidg in
their home in Brooklyn. She
waited the entire day for her
husband to return and theu at-
tacked him with an axe, frac
turiug his skull and otherwise
seriously injuring him. Place,
however, recovered.
Mrs. Place was convicted and
sentenced to death, but she nev
er for a moment believed she
would be electrocuted. She at
first claimed she could remem
ber nothing of the murder, and
later (he plea of insanity was
submitted in her behalf. It was
not until last Thursday that
Warden Sage. announced to her
that Governor Roosevelt had
absolutely refused to interfere
with the course of justice; and
she must die on Monday. It
was a great shock to the woman
but during the last four days
she bore up wonderfully well.
She suffered in two ways, after
she learned that she must die,
from sleeplessness and from loss
of appetite. Again the warden
visited her so that there might
be no misunderstanding, and
told her she must be ready at n
o'clock on Monday morning.
She was ready at that hour,
and no one who watched her
couldmnderstand what change
must have taken place in the
woman's nature to dull her sen
ses that she could go to her
death so calmly and impassively
as Mrs. Place did. It had not
been expected that she would do
so. The last woman condemn
ed to die in this State went to
the gallows shrieking and fight
ing, but Mrs. Place hardly ut
tered a sound, She merely mur
mured a prayer, with closed
eyes, her face turned partly up
ward and seemingly unconscious
of things about her.
This was the twenty sixth
electrocution at Sing Sing pris
on, but none were as successful
as that of today.
Rev. E. Edwards, pastor of
the English Baptist Church at
Minersville, Pa., when suffering
with rheumatism, was advised
to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
He says: "A few applications of
this liniment proved of great
service to me. It subdued the
inflammation and relieved the
pain. Should any sufferer profit
by giving Pain Balm a trial it
will please me." For sale by W.

Sam's Navy.
A Washington
dispatch
ays
the plans of the three big bat
tleships authorized by the naval
appropriation bill just passed
are Deing workea out. l he gen
eral features of the ships have
been defined, subject to the ap
proval of the secretary. The bat
tleships will be 1,000 tons larger
than the Maine and the Missouri
class, of a total displacement of
13,500 tons, making them by
far the largest ships in the
American navy, aud about equal
in dimensions to the best type of
battleships now being construct
ed abroad nder the new prac
tice. Though larger than the
Maine, the ships w ill be laid on
almost the same lines, being only
a little greater in every dimen
sion. They will carry four 12
inch guns in turrets. This cali
bre is an inch less than the guns
carried by the Oregon, but by
improved design they will be al
most equal in penetrative pov
er. The 8 inch guns of the Ore
gon type, althouch they did very
effective work at Santiago and
Manila, have been abaudonded.
But instead of Snch guns the
new ships will have no less than
sixteen 6-inch calibre, all rapid
fires and twenty six pounders.
The speed of the ships will be
eighteen knots, an advance of
two knots over the Oregon class,
but just equal to that of the new
Maine. For protec tion against
the enemy's shot, the battleships
will have one belt of armor
seven feet six inches broad, run
ning clear around the water
line, three feet six inches above
aud four feet blow.
Altogether the'e is a notable
absence of new features in the
desigas of the battleship, which
fact, taken iu connection with
the small amount of progress
reported in the designs for the
Maine class, may be indicated
that our naval designers have
very nearly approached the iden
tical battleship in their work.
As far as these-particular ships
are conceined, the fact that the
navy department is hmiled to
$3uo per ton in the purchase of
armor makes it impossible to
build them in the absence of
further legislation and tiie de
partment will be obliged to con
tent itself with the mere pre
paration of detailed plans dur
ing the coming summer.
The six cruisers of the unar
morcd type provided for can,
however, be built, as Chief Con
structor Ilichborn lias already
been working out the designs
upon lines approved by the
board of bureau chiefs. It is the
purpose of the -navy department
to p ace contracts for these ships
the eailiest possible moment.
They represented a type of cruis
er which would be of the great
est value just now for our tor
eign service. The plan - call for
vessels of about 2,600 tons and
the ships will be improv d Mar
bleheads, so to sprak, being 600
tons larger than the ships of
that class, and with better bat
teries and more coal capacity.
A most important consideration
is that they will be sheated with
wood over the steel hull and
fully coppered, enabling them to
keep the seas even in tropical
waters tor many months without
being under the necessity of
seeking a drydock. The battery
will be made up of six 5-inch
guns for each ship. The cost is
to be considerably more than
that of the Marblehead, which
was $664,000, for the amount al
lowed by Congress was $1,141,
800 each. This difference is ao
counted tor by the mauy im
provements made in the Mar
dle'eead's designs, a notable one
being the use ot water tube
boilers, giving much greater
speed and economy.
